Crafting stories worth (re)telling.

Das Hella Guten

The Brandit was hella stoked when asked to develop the branding of this collaboration beer by these two beer industry giants: Germany’s Weihenstephan, the worlds oldest brewery founded in 1040, and Sierra Nevada from the United States, one of the most influential craft breweries. Our solution pays homage to Weihenstephan’s heritage and history while giving a clear nod to California culture.

To keep up with it’s ever-growing following of craft connoisseurs, Cigar City Brewing needed a brand refresh worthy of it’s sky rocketing popularity. The Brandit worked with Cigar City to stay true to their roots and local history in tobacco manufacturing. With illustrations and scenes of Tampa Bay tobacco rollers, Florida Cracker Cowboys and local pirate legend Jose Gaspar, the designs are sure to impress Cigar City followers, past and present.

The Chronicles of Ravinia

A tall tale based on a local town and the characters you might meet while visiting. Each character’s stories intertwine to tell the tale of Ravinia, Illinois. The Brandit designed creative packaging that features a character or scene from the fable. Each character’s story intertwines with the next, and if you look closely, you’ll spot a clue from the next chapter on each can.

Hop On (pun intended)

Come take a ride with Brew Bus Brewing out of Tampa, Florida and enjoy some amazing craft beer. Our approach to the branding for Brew Bus was a result of a simple concept effectively executed: Why not make the product names out of roads, right? This brand refresh created a smooth ride into new markets with noticeably more brand recognition — and more sales.

Located on the third floor of Legacy West Food Hall in Plano, Texas, Unlawful Assembly Brewing Company lives to push the boundaries of innovation — of the brewing industry and the local community. The Brandit created concepts and illustrations that reflected the brewery’s rebellious character and attitude. Break the chains for positive change!

Inspired by the vibrant colors of the local buildings and celebratory display of alfombras during Semana Santa in Antigua, Guatemala, Antigua Cerveza’s brand takes visual cues from local history and architecture. It’s bright, intricate, and hand- crafted. From the custom lettered logo to the illustrative, geometric patterns on the packaging, The Brandit applied their focus to the small details for a large impact.

Sweet Heat

Founded by a husband and wife duo, The Farmer’s Daughter line of jellies combines traditional Southern Louisiana flavor with the complexity of sweet heat. The Brandit created a package design that uses vibrant colors and detailed, intertwining illustrations to capture the unique ingredients of the recipes as well as the couple’s “halo and horns” approach to life — and peppers.

Real Virginia Beer

Blue Mountain Brewery’s spirit and location enables visitors to relax in the natural beauty of Virginia’s countryside. The Brandit refreshed the brewery’s look to represent this connection to the land with soulful, yet not-too-serious packaging that literally brings the beer’s ingredients to life. In the words of brewery co-founder, Taylor Smack, “It’s perfectly us.”

LIFE’S A RIOT

Based in Chemainus, BC, Riot Brewing Co creates bold beers that celebrate the founders’ fun, irreverent personality. The Brandit developed a big, bright identity that embraces the counter-culture, skate and punk scene glory, full of in-your-face attitude while still telling those stories in a way we can all relate to from this crazy thing called life.

Gettin’ Sticky Wit It!

Located just outside of Philadelphia (get the above reference now?), Stickman Brews came to us looking for a brand unlike any other. We took our creative selves back to the days of doodling and sketching in our high school notebooks — when we should have been paying attention to the teachers — for inspiration for this fun brand.

FRESH FISH, FRESH BEER

TAPS Fishhouse & Brewery is renown up and down the west coast for their fresh seafood, prime steaks and epic Sunday brunch. The three southern California TAPS locations have been serving up memorable ambiance and GABF award-winning beer since 1999. The Brandit reinforced this reputation, creating an equally memorable brand.

MAKING REWARDS MORE REWARDING

Virtual Incentives provides faster, more flexible reward options than traditional providers.

This comprehensive re-brand effort included brand strategy, tagline, brand messaging, printed collateral, and a new trade show booth experience.

HONEST VALUE. QUALITY UNEXCELLED.

The first Missoula Brewing Company was founded in 1890 by Joseph Wagner, located at 109 West Front Street in Missoula, Montana. After receiving permission to use the name from the New York Highlanders (soon thereafter to become the Yankees), the first Highlander Beer was brewed in 1910.

The Brandit helped the new Missoula Brewing Company re-launch this classic brand, with logos and packaging inspired by its rich heritage.

BIG MOUNTAIN, BIG TASTE

Based in Kalispell, Montana, Big Mountain Ciderworks is a family owned orchard and cidery with a vision of transforming the region, and providing more professional opportunities in their community.

A BREWERY AWAKENED.

CHANNELING THE ISLANDS

Island Brewing Co. has been operating a brewery and tasting room with a view of the Channel Islands, off the coast of California, since 2001. While IBC has been a mainstay with Carpinteria locals, new competition created an environment of needing to lead in the regional craft beer scene, rather than merely keeping up with it. The Brandit came on board to evolve the brand to better embody Island’s spirit, recapture craft industry momentum and expand into cans.

The Juce is Loose

Bowen & Bowen, Ltd., one of the largest and most respected businesses in Belize, tasked The Brandit to revive (and rename) this brand and position it successfully for it’s target audience — youth, ages 6-15. Fun, bold, exciting custom lettering and illustration provide both a compelling and conceptual identity Belizean kids are sure to enjoy.

CREATED, NOT MADE.

The Black Abbey brews inspired ales in Nashville, Tennessee, relying on 600 years of brewing tradition, starting with styles that Martin Luther himself might have enjoyed. The Brandit developed a custom family of illustrations, featured in our gothic-inspired packaging design.

CRAFTING AN AUTHENTIC BRAND

Focused on local ingredients and authentic flavors, Hangar 24 has become one of the fastest growing craft breweries in the country. Our authentic brand development and design solutions have yielded award-winning results for this partnership since 2008.

We created an equally bold identity that connects their old-world inspiration with the active culture so prevalent in the region. Discovering your own personality is key to building a memorable brand.

We work in tandem with every client to craft unique solutions, born of mutual understanding and joined direction – a shared vision.

Meadowlark Brewing creates beer for the proud, hardworking folk of Sidney, Montana. The Brandit developed an identity and packaging system that feels immediately familiar, inspired by chrome automotive scripts and oil cans, with just a touch of baseball nostalgia.
